Ron invested $700 for 9 years at 3.4% compounded semi-annually. How many compounding periods are there over the term of the inve
1 answer:
Answer:
financial equations use the formula
where
A is accrued amount
P = principal
r= interest rate
t = number of periods (NOTE: NOT NUMBER OF YEARS !!!)
r = interest rate (NOTE: APR the whole years interest NOT the period)
So in your question the compounding is being done "Semi-annually:
NOTE:
Annual = 1
semi-annual = 2
Quarterly = 4
monthly = 12
So your number of periods is ..... number of years (9) times the number of periods in a year (2 - for semi-annual)
9 * 2 = 18 there are 18 periods

Answer:
y(t) = 3u₂(t) [ ] - 4u₅(t) [
]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find - y″+ 5y′ + 6y = 3δ(t − 2) − 4δ(t −5); y(0) = y′(0) = 0
Formula used -
L{δ(t − c)} =
L{f''(t) = s²F(s) - sf(0) - f'(0)
L{f'(t) = sF(s) - f(0)
Solution -
By Applying Laplace transform, we get
L{y″+ 5y′ + 6y} = L{3δ(t − 2) − 4δ(t −5)}
⇒L{y''} + 5L{y'} + 6L{y} = 3L{δ(t − 2)} − 4L{δ(t −5)}
⇒s²Y(s) - sy(0) - y'(0) + 5[sY(s) - y(0)] + 6Y(s) = 3 - 4
⇒s²Y(s) - 0 - 0 + 5[sY(s) - 0] + 6Y(s) = 3 - 4
⇒s²Y(s) + 5sY(s) + 6Y(s) = 3 - 4
⇒[s² + 5s + 6] Y(s) = 3 - 4
⇒[s² + 3s + 2s + 6] Y(s) = 3 - 4
⇒[s(s + 3) + 2(s + 3)] Y(s) = 3 - 4
⇒[(s + 2)(s + 3)] Y(s) = 3 - 4
⇒Y(s) =
Now,
Let
By Comparing, we get
A + B = 0 and 3A + 2B = 1
⇒A = -B
and
3(-B) + 2B = 1
⇒-B = 1
⇒B = -1
So,
A = 1
∴ we get
So,
Y(s) =
⇒Y(s) =
By applying inverse Laplace , we get
y(t) = 3u₂(t) [ ] - 4u₅(t) [
]
⇒y(t) = 3u₂(t) [ ] - 4u₅(t) [
]
It is the required solution.
